{[(7 * 6) + 6] * 4.62} - 7 =
{[42 + 6] * 4.62} - 7 =
{48 * 4.62} - 7 =
221 - 7 =
214

So, the contract is saying that I can extend my vacation 214 days next month... looks like I'm taking the next 7 months off...

Enjoy peak without me this year, fellas!!! See you in May... suckers!!!
Your math might be correct, but your formula is wrong:

{[(7 x 6) +6] ÷ 4.600} - 7
= [(42 + 6) ÷ 4.600] - 7
= (10.434 rounded down) - 7
= 10 - 7 = 3

No partial credit, so back to your desk and redo the math!!
